For those craving a Lollipop-esque design, L-Ready Dark certainly deserves a chance. There’s also a light version that inverts certain dark colors, making the quick settings panel and settings app both white.

The best part of this theme might just be the large navigation buttons. Though several other custom themes offer the Lollipop triangle, circle, and square, L-Ready has them sized significantly bigger, which looks much better.

For a design with a bit more skeuomorphism (notice the physical-looking switches above in the Settings app) that still retains a modern feel, the LG G3 theme is right up your alley.

The biggest annoyance I had with it was that the notification bar wasn’t shaded the proper shade of grey to match the buttons, resulting in a patchy look, as shown above, but for the most part it did a solid job of remaking that G3 feel.

HoloGlass goes in a direction that no other theme does – it allows you to set a picture that will be the background of several of your apps. With a focus on transparency, any picture can be not only the wallpaper on your homescreen, but also in your Settings app, Phone app, and Messaging app.

Aside from the transparency, it keeps a very standard, Jelly Bean-like interface, as noted by the light blue switches shown above and plain black and white notification shade shown below.

The transparency is really a nice touch, though, and makes HoloGlass stand out in a very crowded arena.

For the color-crazed, look no further than Hazy Smooth White. These theme has color and creativity flowing out of every nook and crevice. It’s certainly a niche theme, but if bright colors are your thing, you’ll love it.

My favorite aspect has to be the unique navigation bar buttons. The back arrow and multitasking circle with the half circle on the side are nice touches that manage to find a nice balance of Lollipop design and its own flair.

It’s a love it or hate it theme, but it can really jazz up your boring black or white smartphone.

Another simple, Lollipop-inspired theme, Material Teal differs from L-Ready in that the Settings app is more blacked out, and the notification shade is more black and white. Otherwise, you’re looking at similar fonts, navigation bar icons, and general feel.

For a blacked out, colorless design, choose Obsidian. While most black-and-white themes sacrifice design along with color, Obsidian actually improves upon the standard interface, offering nice navigation buttons, tweaks in the notification shade, and nice fonts in the status bar.

The notification shade is semi-transparent, but for the most part, this theme sticks to the black-out motto. The icons in the Quick Settings panel are switched up a bit, but they’re all creative, nice-looking changes.

One L+ Grey takes the Material Design/Lollipop idea and combines it with what makes KitKat feel familiar, resulting in a theme that will feel similar, yet more modern.

Colors are pretty muted or non-existent, and the notification shade doesn’t attempt to hover over your screen like some of the other themes. It accepts that it’s not running Lollipop, but it does it beautifully.

My biggest issue was wrestling with the tiny navigation buttons, but if you can tolerate those, you’ll probably enjoy this theme.
